Trump signed an executive order to promote an artificial intelligence “free of ideological biases”

The President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday on Artificial Intelligence (AI) that cancels regulations implemented under the mandate of its predecessor, Joe Bidenarguing that these policies hindered American innovation in the technological sector.

The measure, which seeks to ensure the leadership of the United States in the development of AI, establishes that New technologies must be “free of ideological biases or social agendas designed”.

In addition, it orders a review of all regulations and guidelines issued under the Biden administration on the 2023, which Trump rescinded on Monday.

According to the text, any current policy that does not comply with the principles of “Promote human well -being, economic competitiveness and national security”It must be suspended.

In 2023, Biden had implemented safeguards to ensure that the artificial intelligence tools used by federal agencies did not cause harm to the public, with guidelines that urged agencies to stop the use of harmful tools.

Trump ordered Thursday to review and renounce these policies, arguing that the requirements of the Biden government were “unnecessarily burdensome” for the private sector and prevented the technological innovation of the United States.

The executive order also establishes the creation of a Artificial Intelligence Action Plan within 180 days. The work will be led by a group of technological and scientific officials of the White House, including the newly appointed Special Advisor for AI and cryptocurrencies, David Sacksformer PayPal executive.

The order approach, focused on the concept of “human flowering”, is aligned with Trump’s campaign promises to repeal the Biden AI policy and foster technological leadership based on private sector innovation.

Organizations like AMERICans for Responsible Innovation They have supported the announcement, stating that the new measure reflects the commitment of the Trump administration with overcoming other nations in technological advances.

“This executive order is a preliminary step until a complete strategy is developed“, said Eric GastfriendExecutive Director of the organization.

Trump’s decision has generated criticism of experts and former administration of the Biden Administration, who warn that efforts to regulate the impact of AI on areas such as education, cybersecurity, employment and public benefits could undo.

Alondra Nelsonformer interim director of the White House Science and Technology Office During the presidency of Biden, he described the measure as “a step back” that seeks to dismantle policies designed to protect both innovation and citizens’ rights.

Among the deleted provisions is a clause that required technology companies to share details about the most advanced AI systems before their public deployment, an effort destined to mitigate risks such as the amplification of racial or gender biases.

“In 60 days we will see what rights and security of Americans is willing to protect Trump’s government in the AI ​​era, and if there will be fair land for all innovators or only for large technological entrepreneurs”, Said Nelson.

With this order, Trump aims to replace the government’s supervision measures with an approach that prioritizes economic competitiveness and global leadership in AI, a movement that also reflects the ideas promoted by advisors such as Elon Muskwho has criticized the existence of what he calls “ideological.”

Although Trump’s executive order details its general principles, the implementation of a more complete strategy in the coming months is still expected. Meanwhile, federal agencies have suspended work related to the Policies of the IA Biden administration after revocation.
